SENEGAL-VOTE-AFPENTERTAINMENT-MUSIC

Campaigning for Senegal's presidential campaign is in full swing ahead of a February 25 vote which will pit the country's 80-year-old incumbent, Abdoulaye Wade, against several members of the opposition. In 2000, some of the countryÕs rappers took part in the campaign that put an end to 40 years of Socialist rule. One such singer, Xuman, while disillusioned with how things turned out, continues to use his music to urge youth to be politically aware. A voiced report. (Footage by AFPTV via Getty Images)
